Rockcliffe Park Village
The Village of Rockcliffe Park is one of the most prosperous and charming enclaves in Ottawa, Ontario. It is located northeast of downtown, on the southern banks of the Ottawa River. It encompasses the small McKay Lake, the Pond and the Ottawa Rockery, a rock garden maintained by the National Capital Commission. The stately homes that dominate the village can be imposing but do not be intimidated. This neighbourhood is full of families with young children who are committed to preserving a quality of life unequaled to many other large cities. Rockcliffe Park is home to many Ambassadors whose gracious homes dominate the beautiful street scapes of this beautiful village.
Rockcliffe Park is home to many Ottawa notables. Stornoway, the residence of the leader of the Canadian Official Opposition is located there, the ambassadors of Israel, Norway, the United States of America, and the Papal Nuncio to name a few. The area is home to Elmwood and Ashbury, two of Ottawa’s older independent schools. Rockcliffe Park Public School or (RPPS) (Senior Kindergarten to Grade 6) has an outstanding programme in both languages. Next door, neighbouring Lindenlea is home to Fern Hill Independent school (K-8) as well as the wonderful St. Bridgette's, a Roman Catholic French Immersion School.
A community that once was lead by its own mayor and council, the village of 750 residences is now part of the greater city of Ottawa since amalgamation in 2001.
Rockcliffe Park also boasts its own community hall and library complex. The library was originally funded, built and staffed through the efforts of Rockcliffe Residents Association, but it is now a branch of the Ottawa Public Library, with computer access, a children's area, and a young adult section. Unusual for branches of the Public Library, it has a special collection of art-related books called the Margaret A. Bailey collection.
As it was long a separate village not under the jurisdiction of Ottawa's municipal government, Rockcliffe Park differs from the rest of the city. It has very few sidewalks, but is also relatively inaccessible to through traffic. Much of Rockcliffe is still wooded and the houses are set far apart on wide lots. The village of Rockcliffe Park has a Heritage designation.
